I have a pretty dumb TV with no apps or internet features, but I'll admit that the one "smart-ish" feature I do kind of appreciate is support for CEC controls over HDMI. It makes it a bit more convenient to switch between my

Unless you do pay the fee, and then somehow the device still keeps resetting itself to the advertisement mode. I just use a Kobo now.

Not that guy, but IMHO if you find yourself reaching for Vimscript, that's about the point where learning Emacs/elisp is probably the better investment. There's highly recommended pre-configured packages like Spacemacs or Doo

That specific problem is related to NVidias refusal to support the open API components that every other player is standardizing around. The reason it's becoming possible to run Wayland compositors on NVidia hardware just now is because

I'm optimistic that we'll figure out a solution in the long run, but I have yet to be convinced that any modern machine learning architecture will be able to get us there. In essence, all of these game-playing models are playing b

The bigger issue is the diversity of the pool, more so than the size. True, any given team will tend to strongly favor a subset of heroes, but that subset by necessity must allow for a wide range of play styles and strategies. The limited p

Discord takes this approach as well and it seems to work fine there. I tend to like the approach Valve takes with Steam, which is to completely separate the "account name" (unique, unchangeable) from the "display name" (

Did you intend to post this on a different article? I don't see how this font project relates to Smalltalk.

Discord is all about being dead simple, and nested channels necessarily require more configuration complexity on both the server and client. So, while the feature is a must-have for a small subset of users, it's probably not seen as be

Reading the bug report it sounds like it has more to do with the Copy-on-Write behavior. If I've understood correctly, I think it works something like this: A privileged process needs to use some shared-object/library, and the OS

Which is why we have standards for conveying any conceivable image in raster or vector form. Instead of selecting an easily compressible format for embedding any small image inline with text, we're trying to force a writing system in

I'm sure this isn't done, but I do have to wonder if it'd be possible to identify a user by their unique behaviors when interacting with the extended Recaptcha puzzles. Something like writing style analysis, but applied to p
